in, though few orders are filled excepting in

were indications of firmness in the speculat

be on good basis. If the latter should yield
to the weaker option influence, activity in

Chicago.

CHICAGO, Dec. 30.-No changes in money
rates, and the demand for funds, while brisk,
was hardly as heavy as for the past few days.
The falling off was probably due to a general
desire on the part of merchants to have their
liabilities as low as possible at the closing of
the year. Money rates were 7@S per cent.
Clearings were S9,412,O00, and New York
exchange was 40c premium.

ITS importance to the United States
shown by the Venezuelan President
NEW YORK, August 16.-GuZman Blanco, presi-
dent OF Venezuela, stopping at the windsor Hotel,
said in an interview to-day: 1.-THE boundary ques-
tion between Venezuela and the colony OF Deme-
rara Is OF the greatest interest to Venezuela
and the United States. am aStOniShed beyond
measure that the press OF America has
tailed to make notes OF the acts OF Great Britain
In her appropriation OF territory Of venezuela and
South OF the OrinOco. South America is divided
into three great sections; the one watered by
the great OrinOcO, one by the Amazon, and
one by the La Plate. The great prosperity
OF these three divisions depends upon the free
access by commerce Of the three great rivers.
The OrinOcO belongs to Venezuela, which Is heir
to 1t from the Spaniards The English are &C
curing the territory OF the Orinoco and the Anna
territory bounding the OrinOco at its mouth, an
act which Venezuela cannot allow, and in conse-
quence OF which 1t has suspended relations with
England, given passports to British ministers and
representatives, and has applied to the United
States Government to act as arbitrator in behalf
OF venezuela. The English government has denied
the right OF arbitration in the matter. venezuela
now proposes to send a sufficient army, having
raised a few thousand soldiers, to drive the Eng
liSh usurperS from her territory. AS result, 1t Is
hoped that the United States Government
will intervene to terminate the ques-
ton requiring Great Britain to submit
to arbitration: 1t is especially to be
observed marked reticence in the instances OF
the usurpatiOn OF Venezuelan territory by O
European power. Venezuela is in perfect peace,
and its financial condition is good. 1t is occupied
In the construction OF many railroads and In carry
Ing out many local enterprises"
